TechCare is a multi-actor approach project to demonstrate innovative approaches and appropriate business models to monitor animal-based welfare indicators and improve welfare management in small ruminants (SR) systems using precision livestock farming (PLF) technologies along the whole production chain, enabling all stakeholders, from farmers to consumers and regulators to choose animal welfare friendly products. TechCare will tackle the challenge of using innovative and low-cost technologies, adapted to small ruminant systems across the EU.
The SRUC team was at NorthSheep in Cumbria (UK), talking about TechCare and other projects, highlighting our research on technologies for sheep farming to farmers.
